Ah, anger management-hearkening Andy, we hardly knew ye…which is why it’s fantastic that they’re apparently going to pursue the titular storyline as a GvE battle (Nellie is the Evil, natch). And everything I’ve heard about the Kelly-Ryan story is very promising, from the riff on them as Ronnie-Sammi to just how very and honestly pitiful Ryan looks like next to someone who’s not a complete loser.

This episode sounds extremely promising…though I didn’t expect them to name an entire episode after “Angry Andy”, but still, there are some awesome plot lines that I’ve been looking forward to in this episode!

This show HAS GOT SO MUCH MORE TO OFFER! I miss Michael Scott as much as the next tallyhead, BUT this show has the greatest cast ever assembled that the storylines and humor could be endless! I can’t wait for the NardDog to get back to his ANGERED past!

Honestly, Nellie is a terrible fit for the flow of the show. I know her character is supposed to be awkward, but she dries up every scene she is in. She’s not a good fit, and I sincerely hope they drop her role.

I don’t think Jim is ever going to be manager, because Paul Lieberstein has said that Jim’s character didn’t really work in the manager position in Season 6, and also, John Krasinski has said that he doesn’t want Jim to be manager, as he’s more fun as a slacker employee. I think Andy is the best choice as manager. I can’t see Nellie lasting, she’s too crazy, and being from the UK, I’m not sure how things work in the US, but how she went about getting the job can’t be legal!
